Some people recommend to avoid unsaturated fatty acids in your diet at all. I wonder about this bashing. I could understand if some people at least recommended to avoid omega-6 type unsaturated fatty acids. Comparative studies did show that different types of unsaturated fatty acids differ in their effects. While omega-3 type unsaturated fatty acids […]

Zǐ (子) and chǒu (丑) are the first and the second of the Twelve Earthly Branches or shí-èr ge dì-zhī (十二个地支). The combination of them is called ní hé (泥合). This could be translated as the inflexible combination or as the mud combination. It is the first of the liù-hé (六合) or six combinations with […]

Temples in Chinese aren’t distinguished from nunneries/ monasteries, but are distinguished in sì (寺) and miào (traditional: 廟 / simplified: 庙). The former means Buddhist Temples, while the latter means Daoist Temples. If these words aren’t enough, then some compound words can be constructed. This is necessary for describing buildings of other religions, otherwise the […]

The Chē-Gōng-Miào (traditional: 車公廟 / simplified: 车公庙) in Hong-Kong is impressing because it isn’t only static, but several ritual as well as facility management tasks like emptying the garbage cans are performed hourly. The Chē-Gōng-Miào (traditional: 車公廟 / simplified: 车公庙) was like a clockwork, not like what I was used from the Chinese. Here is […]

It went viral, so you probably know about Elon Musk complaining about vampires (in this case meaning people in the Social Security database with the death field set to FALSE) collecting social security in the USA. Donald Trump joked that at least one person collecting social security is older than the country. Why aren’t such […]

Stumbling upon The Technical Astrologer blog, I finally could have found a source for substantiated critiques on astrology. This at least seems to be its motivation. But I must say that Cosmobiology as well as the Uranian school of astrology aren’t underestimated. They rather are overestimated and overrated. If the author of The Technical Astrologer […]

Graphology can be an assessment tool, but graphology also can be turned into an active treatment for coping with certain situations. When I did read about this, I simply had to test this. It worked very well! It was the breakthrough in turning my Saturn-related fears into the by Saturn also promised expertise! Writing things […]

Gryphia is asteroid #496 and also known as 1902 KH. Gryphia’s orbit is characterized by a semi-major axis of 2.20 Astronomical Units, an eccentricity of 0.08, a period of revolution of 1 191 days, and an inclination of 3.8 degrees. Gryphia was discovered by the German (from Baden, a grand-dukedom with Karlsruhe as the capital, […]

Because a Chē-Gōng-Miào (traditional: 車公廟 / simplified: 车公庙) centers a deified Chinese general for worship, so I count this type of temple to the religion of Confucianism. I took sixty pictures from the Chē-Gōng-Miào (traditional: 車公廟 / simplified: 车公庙) in Hong-Kong. Here is the second set of twelve of them:

I took sixty pictures of a Che Kung Temple. Wikipedia tells me that the name should be Ce1-Gung1-Miu6 in Cantonese and Chē-Gōng-Miào (traditional: 車公廟 / simplified: 车公庙) in Standard Chinese. The deified Sòng (宋) Dynasty general Chē Dà Yuán Shuài (車大元帥), who is estimated to have lived on the material plane (otherwise he couldn’t get […]
